Needham, MA Market Report
 Needham real estate is off to a great spring start.  The activity has been great so far.  The weather, however, has not and that is true for New England.   The rains were the worst I can remember in about 30 years.  I remember that because we were doing major renovations on our own home at that time and the contractors were all backed up due to rain for 6 weeks at that time.  Well enough of that and on to the Needham, MA Market Report.
There were 29 single family homes that went under agreement from 3/1/2010 … (0 comments)

Needham, MA Market Report
At this point in the Needham, MA real estate single family home inventory we are at a very low inventory.  In comparison I have prepared a chart below to compare 1/8/2008, 1/8/2009 and 1/8/2010.  Yet at this time last year the inventory was even lower.
 
 
I have experienced an increase in activity personally even just since December 27th, which is a nice way to start the new year off.

needham market report: Needham Market - ?spring - 01/31/09 03:10 PM
Well if you look outside you would not think it was spring weather-wise or ground-wise with all the snow but the sun is shining.  The end of January brings a spring market to Needham.  Other nearby markets are busier too.  For example I did an open house in Holliston last Sunday 1/25 and it was much busier than I have been in a while.  It was pretty non-stop.
In the past fourteen days there have been 12 new single family listings come on.  In the past couple of days there have been 2 new properties.

During the last 7 days there were 9 single family homes that went under agreement.  I believe that now the elections are over people can make decisions.  That is just me talking out loud, but I have seen more activity since November 4th.

I have also noticed there is more activity online as well previewing properties there first.   There just seems to  be an uptick in the activity. 
Gerenerally if someone is looking at this time of year they would like to be in their new … (2 comments)

needham market report: Needham Market October 07 compared to October 08 - 10/22/08 10:52 AM
The Needham Market now versus last October.
The market in Needham is ok despite what is going on in other areas.  There is some change in the market this October over last October in days on market and list price but considering what is going in all the markets it is really pretty good.
I personally do not think anyone can go wrong purchasing a home in Needham.  In years past the Needham Cooperative Bank, now known as the Needham Bank was always happy to lend for a purchase of a home in Needham.  They never felt that it was a risk. 
I will … (1 comments)
